It's a New Year

It's a New Year and we are excited around here.  I am really looking forward to 2013 being the year that I get things done the way I want them and not overloading myself everything that people ask me to do.  I picked two word for the year for myself.  BALANCE & NO. Now I know No sounds harsh and mean, but I have a hard time saying it and then I get way overloaded and don't know which way to turn when I cannot get everything done. Balance of course is for all that I have. I need to make sure family comes first and that is an important part of balance for me.
Hope you all had a great holiday and wonderful New Year's.

W Family {Walnut Creek, CA - SF Bay Area} Photography

I had the pleasure of taking photos of the W family in the very last weeks of June.  This was really special to me as D is my son's science teacher and she means everything to him and to me.

Don't you just love the smile on her face. M didn't want to give mom a hug.  You know 18 year old boys.  Gee Whiz! mom leave me alone, but I just love the look on his and her face in this photo.

I love this photo of M.  He kept telling me he doesn't like getting his photo taken, but look at him.  BORN model and those eyes!!!!!

I love this one of D with her doggie.  He is an old fellow, but very much loved!!!

Thank you so much W Family for letting me take some very special photos.
